DescriptionNVD

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: mana: fix use-after-free in add_adev() error path

If auxiliary_device_add() fails, add_adev() jumps to add_fail and calls auxiliary_device_uninit(adev).

The auxiliary device has its release callback set to adev_release(), which frees the containing struct mana_adev. Since adev is embedded in struct mana_adev, the subsequent fall-through to init_fail and access to adev->id may result in a use-after-free.

Fix this by saving the allocated auxiliary device id in a local variable before calling auxiliary_device_add(), and use that saved id in the cleanup path after auxiliary_device_uninit().

AnalysisAI

Use-after-free in Linux kernel's MANA network driver allows local authenticated attackers to corrupt memory and potentially execute code with kernel privileges. The flaw occurs when auxiliary_device_add() fails in add_adev(), triggering cleanup that frees memory still referenced by subsequent error-handling code. …

RemediationAI

Within 24 hours: Identify systems running Linux kernel versions 6.6.0-6.6.133, 6.12.0-6.12.80, 6.18.0-6.18.21, 6.19.0-6.19.11, or 7.0.0-7.0.x with MANA network drivers enabled. Within 7 days: Prioritize kernel updates to patched versions (6.6.134, 6.12.81, 6.18.22, 6.19.12, or 7.0 patched release) on affected systems. …
